Tongue Jack Foot Pad - Remove or not while towing
Hello Y'all,
We have a 2010 Graywolf 19RR that has a manual tongue jack (which works just fine).
Attached to the bottom of the jack is a removable foot pad extension that
we use when are parked and unhooked from the truck.
We always remove the foot pad when the trailer is connect to the truck and
get ready to tow. We keep the foot pad close by in the back of the truck bed...
when we get to a site we grab it out and reattach it to the tongue jack.
My question is: Should we remove the foot pad extension while towing or not?
So does anyone out there keep their foot pad attached while towing?
Have there been any safety issues towing with the foot pad in place?
Your thoughts and comments are greatly appreciated.
